#Porn4Prom: Supporters rally behind teen's dream date

The Twitter hashtag #Porn4Prom is no longer just an idea. It’s a movement.

The hashtag was started about three days ago for 18-year-old Mike Stone (@madmike42948), an ordinary high schooler who became an Internet phenomenon and Reddit hero after he used Twitter to land a porn star as a prom date. Adult film actress Megan Piper (@xMeganPiper), 19, was the only woman to say yes and even landed a free trip from Los Angeles to Oakdale, Minn., to attend the dance.

Everything was going according to plan until Stone’s high school found out about his date and banned her from the event.

On Wednesday evening, Stone was interviewed by Minnesota’s KSTP-TV, an ABC affiliate, where he and his mother shared their story.

Stone’s TV appearance rallied Twitter in his defense. The hashtag #porn4prom was mentioned more than 1,600 times throughout the night and even started trending in Minneapolis. It was enough traction to grab free porn website PornHub’s attention.
